I'll be honest, i've found these at a thrift store. Unfortunately, the audio jack is a 4 pin one and i have nowhere to plug them in to test them. The cable is removable, and can be replaced if needed with a regular audio jack (they can be found on ebay). They are in good shape overall, given...

Do they ship from Hong-Kong? How long did it take to arrive and did you payed any import taxes?

If i'll decide to buy these, they will be my first IEMs with detachable cables. How good are the MMCX connectors in terms of reliability? If they break, what is more common to break, the female port on the IEM or the male one on the cable? 

Anyone knows how these compare to some full size open headphones like Philips X2? :)

I'm curious about one thing, if using custom made cups and earpads, can they be tweaked to have a wide soundstage and 3d feeling and still have the isolating nature of a closed headphone? What are the best mods for this? Bigger cups? Angled drivers?   And one more thing, has anyone used Sugru...

Ok, so, i have recently bought some unmoded Fostex T50RP, that i listen to from the onboard audio; i haven't yet decided on an amp and dac for them. They sound decent (though i don't have anything to compare them to), but sound isolation is pretty poor and they are uncomfortable (really sweaty...

Are there some specific mods that increase sound isolation AND comfort (anti sticky sweat)? I was surprised they don't offer much sound isolation with no mods, despite their close nature. 

Quote: In this case, it permits making a honeycomb like structure in the walls of the cup, with small pockets of air. It shows this in the video. This technique is common in 3D printing, because it saves material in most printed objects and adds strength to structural integrity while making...

Quote: Are custom (or replacement) cables available for these? Can't seem to find any, maybe because of their proprietary jack. Regarding isolation, can't it be improved with foam tips or something similar?    Any other options with detachable cables? I want detachable cables because...

I'm sorry i didn't see this thread earlier. So i'll post here as well, where i should have done in the first place.   I'm looking for IEMs that are very good for games and movies, so they have to have very good soundstage and 3D imaging (will use Dolby Headphone).    Price range...

Hi, i need some good in-ear monitors for using in a relative noisy environment, primarily for low-competitive gaming and movies with dolby headphone virtual surround (provided by my sound card). So they need to have as good as it can (in my price range) soundstage and 3D imaging. I know these...

Quote: I've heard that AKG K550 has good soundstage, i wonder how it compares to some modded T50 (Mad Dogs, for example).

Hello, I need to make a quick buy decision regarding an amp+dac for these, i hope this is the place to ask. I must make an order this week (a relative of mine is visiting US and can help me) and i really don't have much time left for digging through hundreds of posts (i will gladly do this...

Anyone has any gaming experience with "DTS Ultra PC II", found on some expensive Asus motherboards (with realtek sound)? It's advertised as capable of virtual headphone surround and i'm wondering how good the effect is, compared to Dolby Headphone, for example, in modern games.
